I'm about to do something I've never done in my 45 years - Movember

[Northern Bloke]

And that is grow a Mo (tash) or rather attempt to

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of moustaches on thousands of men’s faces in the UK and around the world. The aim of which is to raise vital funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically cancers that affect men.

This is the first time I've EVER tried to grow any sort of facial hair so I've no idea what's going to happen, it could be an epic fail, Baldrick with his caterpillar balancing act springs to mind

However, it's a very worthy cause so please give what you can - if nothing else you'll get to see me looking like a complete plank along the way

Well, here we go

Movember
uk.movember.comIt’s Moustache Season and I’m growing a fine moustache for Movember! Please support my growing efforts and the 10,000 men who will die of prostate cancer and the more than 2,000 men who will be diagnosed with testicular cancer this year.

Thank you http://mobro.co/NorthernBloke

I have an uncle and a colleague who have been diagnosed with this so it's a cause that's close to me
